Texans, OTOH, are fucked up beyond belief.
Girl from Houston is now glaring at you, Min.
Really, Texas is suffering from whatever fundamentalist takeover has afflicted the rest of the southern US. The state has been solidly red since the democrats started supporting racial minorities. The state may be rapidly turning purple, though. There's a very large hispanic population here and they tend to vote democrat. The only reason Texas is still a red state is because, traditionally, hispanic voters just don't show up to vote. This last election that changed and the dems got a big boost for it. Now the TX branch of the DNC has been making a concerted effort to get hispanic voters out to vote, which would further empower the democrats.
